sbpaabck Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 Revenge of Deathadder finally fixed?! Now i can die in peace. not yet maybe never. We have to wait to see if BP changes his mind and releases a showcase 2 or updated standalone but the chances are slim as he has moved onto other projects. There's always mame for the PC for goldenaxe RODA - haven't tried it but best bet for this game. One day someone will put this on the xbox... one day...
Robert Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 i always wondered what is the actual pheonix versions of the cps2 games are they bootlegs or what??? CPS2 games had a suicide battery on board, when it went flat certain locations in RAM would be lost, and the game would not run. This was to discourage bootlegging. The Phoenix version (released by Razoola) has a modified ROM that does not depend on these sensitive RAM locations. It also has a Phoenix logo that appears when booting up. Apart from that, the game is the same as before. Almost all Phoenix sets are in MAME. The last 2 can be found in MisfitMAME instead.

DHS Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 Sad news but understandable that BP left.I'm coinops user since "Coinops" and then CO Gold came out and speedy new release with gret adds. Today I would like Tetris the Absolute The Grand Master 2set name tgm2manufacturer Arikayear 2000genre Puzzle (hof)category Puzzle / Drop (hof)driver status gooddriver source psikyosh.c to be added.Hope that's the right place to post.
1stmoon Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Looks like this side of 1emulation has quickly dilapidated into tumbleweeds. If there's one thing BP was good at it was generating hype from the CoinOps releases. Oh, and of course Kenshiro has gone the ghost as well.

There's a psikyosh driver on NeoSource that kenshiro posted. it contains both of the tgmt2 games as well as the rest. If someone were to compile a build it'd be very playable on xbox...
DHS Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 I unfortunatelly don't know how do add drivers to a build, so I'll just be waiting, hoping someone will do it.

I made an ulitmatium to a few to go our separate ways if they see to it ill come back onto here if not I wont be. Also due to 1emulation quickly dilapidated into tumbleweeds I will be allowing a few into a private forum soon or talk to gamecop about a dev forum here...if not apart from nes release this scene is dying pretty fast IMO maybe it will pickup again but if not ill set something up for those that PMed
cba.gy Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Its the calm before the storm thats all.Perhaps the NES6502 release will replace yours as top dog here !!! As i see it there are 3 options.1. Run away and sulk in a private forum.2. Take the other emulator on head to head for popularity.3. Continue deveoping for the fan base that exists, avoid a head to head by giving users the opportunity help develop this emulator further. Not in a "feature suggestion" slagging match but by showing users what you want and how they can create it. You have the talent, you just need to learn to be a teacher.
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 what can I teach you cba? honestly no offense ive seen you PS skills and I dont think you understand coding what do you want me to teach you?(if its skinning im sorry but thats just a replace and see what it does ask question like 999 guy did I told him the exact lines he needed and looked though the source to see if it was poss) what other dev ever has taught people stuff? I cant even get people to read the readme or help PS I hope legends does replace CoinOPS as top dog he has all my sources and can split off and work with anyone on anything no worries at all or use it in his build...I wish him luck I know hes more skilled than me really. So best of luck to NES or anyone else that gets into this, its not really anything to do with what I post I very rarely stray much from arcade games really.
cba.gy Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) I understand the current CoinOps config is a "add and replace, see what happens type skin", thats fine if your happy with the way it is now. Thats where i gave up as i felt no freedom and wasnt happy with copy n paste to the current framework.Coding, yes your right well kind of, believe it or not i do understand it and can write (not copy and paste) a little, the code has been out a while you know, but i dont know enough to build a full emulator.What i mean is i think there needs to be a new direction to avoid stagnation. PS. I dont use the expensive Photo Shop, i use basic Paint Shop. As far as my skills go your right again, very limited however, i have produced varied, coloufull inteactive skins for different emulators across the board. Ive seen your artistic work, lol no offense, but if i chop off the end of my little finger then i can post you some of my artistic talent, that would then double your existing repertoire, would that help you ?

BritneysPAIRS Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 its getting a total new direction...biggest ive seen also 90percent of stuff is named as it is in the simplelist section and to me its self expainitry I skined it very fast the first time and it isnt to different and 999 asked for half the changes so he obviously looked at it at some stage properly and thats great. It can do what FBA does and more it would be easy to 100percent duplicate any fba skin

BritneysPAIRS Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 it can skin like FBAxxx now in CoinOPS reignite or ignite... the new engine is alot more compexed as its xbmc skin engine so unless you know that it will be hard but if known anything is possible really
